This bug is pretty self explanatory. I can't lockpick anything in the game because the mini-game is invisible. I can hear the sounds of lockpicking, but that's it. Haven't seen any potential fixes thus far; any else experiencing this?

It's because you have 5:4 monitor. There is mod on Nexus to help you with this. Not ideal, but it works.

Thanks a ton! I can finally lockpick.

I've got the same problem. Can hear the rattling of the lock but no picture. Is there any other way of sorting this out I really don't want to download mods.

I'm just using the "cheat" unlock. Until they fix it..due I know (from my Skyrim experinece) that I can pick any lock without a problem.

It's not really a mod, unless you assume that lockpicking interface is not part of vanilla game, more like unoffical patch. But the "mod" works. IT JUST WORKS!

Thanks NobodieCRO But I've never done cheats (just me) & thanks Lord lucan ( I knew you were still alive) I'll look into it.

Although right now I'm pretty angry and tired of this game after,

12 hours of downloading from steam even though I have a disc!

2 days to finally get the game to work thanks to people on the forums (NOT from Bethesda support)

When building I can't move so I have to make the thing set it down put it in inventory then move to the place I want it.

Key bindings well really!

Now I can't pick locks which for me is a real game breaker.

I know nowadays with most games there's usually some tweaking but this is really unreasonable of Bethesda to produce this game for PC where some people still can't even start it and where there are game breaking bugs.
